Printing on an invitation size envelope

[Emily060708]

I would like to know if there is a way to print with an invitation sized
envelope? The actual size is 4 3/8 x 5 3/4. I don’t find this size in
word. Also if there is a way to put these envelopes through the printer is
there a way to use mail merge with them? Thanks for any advice.

If you have Envelope A2, this is the correct size. If not, you'll have to
define a custom size. Whether your printer can print it or not depends on
the printer's paper-handling capability.

I have vista, word 2007 and it does not have that option would it be under
something else?

The list of paper sizes offered by Page Setup and the Envelope dialog is
generated by your printer driver; if you don't have the size listed, then
you have to use a Custom size.

Thank you I will give that a try.

Many printer drivers are poor with custom page sizes with Word and will
adopt a near standard size (which may or may not be appropriate). When you
are forced to use custom sizes, it is often better to simply use a standard
paper size (US Letter or A4) and use the margins to determine where the
address is printed when an envelope is inserted in the printer.
